I can't wait until we get to see her again in Beyond the Spider-Verse.

[Vordan]

Went from her world being used as event fodder to
-Showing up in animation
-Being one of the stars of Hickman’s new Ultimate Universe which is sure to get plenty of eyes on it
-Probably going to show up in Spider-Man 3

Not a bad turn around for a character Quesada was determined to ensure would never come to be

Insomniac Games' Spider-Man 3? That said, very much cosigned.

It'd be great if you could do a tag team fight with May and April working together in the game

Yeah sorry forgot to specify “Insomniac”.

[9AlphaOmega1]

I am ready for an MC2 revival, the events of Spiderverse and the Other, most have some effects on her world. But she can have new adventures and new threats. I am down with anything.

Spider-Man Unlimited #18: After all of the nonsense involving the Insectoid Six, Annie brings Mayday over from Earth-982 to spend Christmas with the RYV Parkers and best of all she's brought pie!

So sweet . . .

[Garlador]

I'm beyond happy we're still getting new Mayday and RYV content to ring in 2024.

Ooops. May got caught playing with the mysterious crystal ball that may or may not have a radioactive spider or hold precious memories inside of it.
